Trinity Soul University REVAMPED: A Casual Magic RP [IC]

Trinity Soul University - Main Building | Headmaster's Office

As the trio continued to make their way through the Main Building to the Office of the Headmaster, Daichi had remained quiet as the conversation between Seki and Trista too began to grow quiet. The air was a little awkward and slightly depressing now, however down the end of the hall they saw the door to his office. Seeing it Daichi smiled and spoke.

"Well now. We're finally here. My office. Just allow me to unlock the door then we can talk about anything you need." The Headmaster spoke as he took out a rather simple key to his office. Swiftly he had unlocked the door with a quick insertion and turn of the key. With a loud click he then turned the knob and opened the door. Revealing something that looked more like... a small library and study.

Spoiler

The room was quite large, roomy, and comfy. It did not seem like a place of business aside from a large, mahogany desk and large leather office chair sitting along the the right wall.

"Just take a seat wherever you wish."

Room 107B - Males' Dormitory - TSU

After a brief walk across campus, Jason had finally returned to his room. He was glad to have finally reached it after such an.. eventful day and entered inside. Once inside, Jason wasted little time in getting to his bedroom and closing the door. Immediately after that, Jason slid out from inside of his backpack's straps, and grabbed the handle at the top of the bag, and laid it in the corner of his room. He then walked over to the window and opened up the window. After all, this room could use some fresh air after being closed off for however long it had been since its last resident. As the window opened, Jason could feel the cool breeze against his face and closed his eyes in satisfaction before turning around, walking to the bed, and slumping into it to relax. As he laid there, he simply pulled a music player out from one of his pockets and put the earplugs into his ears before selecting a song and tuning the rest of the world out.

Trinity Soul University - Headmaster's Office, Main Building

As the duo walked through the doors of the Headmaster's Office, Trista's eyes lit up with wonder and splendour as she was promptly greeted by a luscious and elegant library that was the Headmaster's Office. It was completely unlike what she had expected. Trista had thought that the Headmaster's Office was small, cramped, very drab like any ordinary high school or college office. But instead, the room was open yet cosy. Grand yet modest. Sleek yet old fashioned. The appealing and welcoming look of the office was much too enticing for young Trista.

Were it not for the fact that Trista had matters to attend to, the girl could see herself reading the tomes that lined the office walls with pure content. The hours that could pass as Trista would read away the nights and days would be grand and filled with such fine literature and comfort. And considering the books belonged to a such prestigious and powerful magician, there was no telling what wonders Trista would find locked within those pages. Historic pieces of the magics of old, rarest curiosities and grimoires to fill Trista's book-hungry mind. A grand adventure within arm's reach and yet, as much she yearned to grab a book and recline on one of the nearby sofas, it was an adventure that was not quite meant to be.

With a gesture and prompt from the Headmaster, Trista's distant mind quickly snapped by into reality.
"Y-Yes, sir..." Trista replied, "Thank you..."
Turning her longing gaze away from the bookshelves and towards the centre of the room, Trista proceeded towards the two sofas surrounding the table. As carefully as she could, Trista descended onto the sofa facing the window.
"I-I'm sorry to have... m-made you do this, sir..." Trista spoke up, her gaze turned towards the ground and her voice, while clearer, laden with embarrassment and shame. "To... drag you away f-from... from all those people like that... Just to... hear me out..."

Guidance Office

Since the orientation ended, Mira was doing some pre-school paperwork. She was working hard at her job, as she had for a long time. Granted she was no workaholic, but certainly one of the more hardworking counselors. Though it did cost her her social activity. She doesn't talk to the other counselors. Or the other staff really. In fact, she doesn't want to make direct contact with anyone unless they come up to her. After all, she wasn't a fan of humans. But thankfully for her, there are more than just humans.

Suddenly, a knock was heard at the door. "Come in," she said. The door opened up to reveal Ystmurra. "Hey, Zei-"

"Close the door!" She whisper yelled to Ystmurra. He jumped in shock and shut the door.

"Sorry, Zeilyph."

She smiled and got up. "It's alright, Ystmurra. Come here, it's been so long!" She walked up to him and gave him a hug. Ystmurra chuckled and hugged back.

"Come on, Zeilyph, it's only been eight years, compared to how long we've been around. But it's great to see you again."

Zeilyph let go. "Speaking of eight years, how have you been? What have you been up to?"

"Well," Ystmurra started, "since you left, I had been wandering around Japan. I've met some nice people, but then it's because they think I'm one of them. But that won't be for long. Anyways, I saw the sights and they were great. I was lonely though. But at one point, I managed to meet-"

Zeilyph interrupted. "Stop. Ystmurra... please... PLEASE don't say what I think you're going to say."

"But... I made friends with a human."

Zeilyph put her hands on his shoulders. "Ystmurra what have I told you about these thing? I keep telling you, don't trust humans! They will double-cross you the second they found out you were a-"

"She knows."

There was a long pause.

"... She?"

"I met a girl, Zeilyph. Back in Okinawa. I was resting in my ghoul form in the forest and a woman walked up to me. She thought I was... cool. I ran away, but she followed me. Honestly, I thought she was gonna kill me. But she only looked at me in the eyes. She smiled at me, Zeilyph! I reverted to human form. She looked shocked. We talked for a bit. That was four years ago. The next year we started to hang out. then the next we started... well, dating. I lived with her for two years until I had to come here- Zeilyph what're you doing?"

Zeilyph was rubbing her face and pacing. "No, no no no, Ystmurra, why? It's one thing to meet a human, wh-why would you fah... f-fall in LOVE with one?! She can MESS WITH YOUR HEAD! She can ruin your life with your own emotions, she can-"

"Zeilyph!"

Zeilyph stopped in shock of Ystmurra's sudden burst.

"She's not bad. She's alright, I... we love eachother, Zei-"

"Don't. Just... I get it, you have feelings for this, this... human. Just... try not to communicate with her too much, okay? Please understand, I'm only mad because I'm worried for you. We ghouls... just coming into the world as a ghoul means you either died horribly or you died with intense regret. You don't need more of that." She then smiled and begun tussling his hair. "After all, more of that would mess with that big heart you have."

Ystmurra laughed. "Alright, stop it, you're embarrassing me... in front of no one..."

Zeilyph stopped and gave Ystmurra a slightly pained smile. "I'm sorry, but it's not like I'm completely cutting you off. Just trust me on this. I'm only concerned. Okay?"

Ystmurra returned the smile.

"... alright. I'll limit my conversations with her. I promise."

"Good," Zeilyph said. "Now then, get on outta here, you little bugger. I still have to finish up paperwork."

Ystmurra smiled and left with a wave. Zeilyph sat back down and tried to reprocess what just happened.

"Oh, Ystmurra... why would you get entangled with this woman? I cannot believe you...

"... but then maybe it's for real. After all, he did say that she already saw his ghoul form. I guess if Ystmurra behaves... I'll alleviate his restrictions."

Trinity Soul University | Headmaster's Office

As the vampire and human girls entered the office, Seki was quite impressed with the headmaster's selection. For the first time since coming to this school she was actually impressed, and that was saying a lot. The detail in ceiling was impressive and the multitude of books was very interesting to the vampire. It seemed one could learn many things from such a collection. Perhaps the headmaster was smarter than Seki had initially given him credit for. She took a seat next to her roommate and remained quite while she let little Trista explain. Hopefully this wouldn't' take too long

In the midst of ample preparation, the temperature of the campus began to increase steadily, just as you would expect from the late summer days. Thus, Grace decided to postpone her shopping spree until later in the day when the sun goes down and the ground cools. Until then, she decided to set up her computer in her room. She didn't expect anyone to come into the dormitory so soon, so she was only clad in a rather comfortable outfit of sarashi and sweatpants as she complained about the troubles she was having with the assembly.

Grace stopped her incessant complaint when she heard the door open. She froze and, realizing that a roommate made an entrance, quickly reached for a white T-shirt and draped it over her. Can't let the roommates know that she's really a woman now, does she?

Thankfully for Grace, the roommate entered a different part of the room than where she was: he must have already been in the dorm and has chosen where he wanted to sleep at. After releasing a sigh of relief, Grace continued with setting up her computer. Hopefully nobody bothers her: in order for her true identity to be concealed as long as possible, she will have to avoid contact with anyone and everyone.

Trinity Soul University | Headmaster's Office

When Trista and Seki entered the Headmaster's office, he smiled as he saw Trista's rather intrigued expression. The way her eyes lit up as she saw all the books, and the way she seemed entranced by everything definitely made the Headmaster a bit happy. However Seki's rather calm demeanor made it rather hard to tell if she was impressed or not with the surprisingly elegant office.

As soon as the two students took a seat on the sofa facing the window, the Headmaster closed the door behind him. With a small sigh of relief of finally getting back to his office himself, he was now able to focus on Trista's question. While he was walking to the sofa opposite of Seki and Trista, he heard the young shy blonde apologizing for having the him bring her to his office just so they could speak in private. This caused Daichi to close his eyes and reply in a calm and reassuring tone.

"Oh no. Don't be sorry. After all I'm the Headmaster of this university, and as such I try my hardest to help my students. That is what a headmaster, and teacher of Light Magic of this place of learning should do." The headmaster replied as he sat down on the sofa directly opposite of the two girls. "Anyways what is it that you need... I'm sorry what was your name again? I'm afraid I didn't catch it earlier..."

Trinity Soul University | Infirmary

Shortly after all the students at the Orientation had taken their separate ways through the campus, Nurse Hannah meanwhile was busy trying to get back to the Infirmary. It had taken a lot longer than expected with all the traffic in the halls, and the countless students stopping hher to ask her various questions. The questions usually revolved around where are the classes located and other various things about the campus.

Thankfully the Head Nurse finally made it to the Infirmary, and as she stepped into the office she let out a sigh of relief before she looked up... and saw that there were several patients.

One of which was that kid with green hair that passed out upon seeing her earlier.

Shortly after she entered, she was knocked onto the floor as Sonya and Cale of whom was carrying a nearly frostbitten Zoe barged into the Infirmary.

Upon Cale barging into the room, the door slammed into Hannah's back, causing her to fall forward onto the ground and letting go of her still decapitated head. As this happened her disembodied head began rolling along the ground while she then cursed.

"AH FUCK!!!" Her head yelled as it continued to roll along the ground before hitting one of the walls in the Infirmary, all the while her headless body began feeling around for her head. "Hey can somebody help a decapitated head here!?" She yelled once again as Cale who was still holding onto Zoe's tail nearly jumped upon hearing and seeing that Nurse Hannah's head was on the ground, and still talking.

"Oh god- I'm sorry! It's just that we we're in an emerg-" Cale spoke before he was cut off by Nurse Hannah.

"Whatever, just somebody help me up!!!"

While the Headmaster reassured Trista that it wasn't her fault, Trista still couldn't help but feel guilty. If anything, it confused her. Why was the Headmaster so supportive of her? He barely knew her and yet here he was hearing Trista out instead of staying with co-workers and the other prospective students. Why? Why her? Trista knew she wasn't special. So why bother? Did the Headmaster truly not mind? Or was he instead putting on a façade for her?

"T-Trista, sir..." Trista promptly replied, "Trista... Lundin, sir..." After giving her name, Trista began to fidget in her spot, her gaze shifting between the ground, the Headmaster, and the books that adorned the office walls. It as if Trista was uncertain as to what to focus on. Restless. Indecisive. Trista knew what she came here to do. She just didn't quite know how approach the situation, if at all. But, as it stood, Trista knew that to continue talking was probably the best option,
"I-If I may continue, sir..." Trista continued, "When I... applied for this university, I couldn't help but notice that... that something was... missing. Light... Dark... Fire, Electricity... Water, Ice... I heard about all these elements and m-magics being taught here... except... one. My magic... Nowhere in the... documents n-nor the Orientation did anyone... mention it. I don't know if you just classify it as L-Light but... I wanted to know something."

Before Trista finished, the girl slowly raised up her right arm. With some effort, Trista's hand began to glow a faint blue-white glow. Much like all of the other times Trista had used her magic. But, with the sun shining into the office, the light was only just visible to all people present.
"Do you happen to know about this kind of magic?" Trista asked. "I call it..." Trista halted as she braced herself to say it. She had gotten this far. There was no way she could simply back down from this. "Lunar Magic."

"Thank you Trista. Anyways, just tell me whatever it is you need. I will try to help as much as I can." The Headmaster spoke as he placed his hands on his lap.


As he watched Trista, he listened to what she was saying. About how when she applied she had noticed that she didn't see her magic type on the list of magic types in the documents or Orientation forms. This garnered his interest, and made him lean forward a bit. He knew that out of the known magic types listed in all the recorded documents of magic types, there was only a few that weren't really listed. Those were either rare, or too custom made of a magic type to add to the list. Before he could speak anything though, Trista held out her hand and began to show him and Seki what her magic type was first-hand.


When her hand began to emit a faint bluish-white glow. Seeing this he could faintly feel the mana coming from the light she had created. It was beginning to become a little clear to him. For he had felt this magic type once before for a brief time. In fact his suspicions were supported even further by what she called it. Lunar Magic. Not the exact name he heard it go by, it essentially meant the same thing. With that he stood up and straightened his glasses.


"Well now. I will be the one to sadly tell you that we have no classes that teaches this Lunar Magic itself. However we do have a tutoring program, and I am willing to help you with this. I've experienced this magic first-hand in the past, but not by much to be honest. Thankfully I do have a large selection of more personal books regarding magic here in my office. It will take some time but I can find the books in which 'Moon Magic', which is just another name for Lunar Magic are. With them I will be able to help you. Even then, I can still teach you the basics of how to maintain, and control general magical energy. That should help you at least." Replied the Headmaster as he walked over to one of the bookshelves.

"In the mean time I should have a book that could help you get a better grasp about how this 'Lunar Magic' probably works... Just give me a moment while I... AHA! Found it." Daichi said as he took out a rather old book from the shelf.

The title was something along the lines of "The Moon and how it affects Magic".


With the book in hand he walked over to and handed it to Trista. "Here you go. This isn't really about Lunar Magic, but it does state how the moon has an affect on other magic types. It's generally a good read, and it should give you at least a faint idea of how Lunar Magic will be effected."

Trista was rather... disappointed. While she had known that there was some reason for their not being any mention of Lunar Magic within the university, the Moon mage had no idea that it was simply because there were no classes for it. Were there not enough mages like her to warrant one? Or was it because no teacher within the university could teach such an element? In any case, Trista had finally gotten her answer. But it meant that, unlike many of the other prospective students present in the unviersity, Trista was probably one of the few who had no class to attend. Well, from what she could imagine. Trista shortly ceased her glow and lowered her arms back onto the her lap. Trista had no idea as to how much longer she could hold her light like that but, given the circumstances, it was not long at all.

Receiving a book from the Headmaster, Trista noticed the well-detailed cover and age on the book. This thing had to have been at least decades old. Either acquired during the Headmaster's prime or possibly even inherited. Bound in tight leather with thin steel metal parts around the spine and the edges, the book had an interesting lunar flair printed to it that clearly showed its purpose and give an idea as to the contents within. 'The Mystical Moon - A Study into the Effects of the Moon in Magic' was the full title of the book. Trista's disappointment was soon turned into that of being pleasantly surprised as she studied the book. Noting the book's title and what the Headmaster had to say about it, it seemed that the very object that fuelled her magical powers had some manner of role to play within the magical world. While it may not detail Lunar Magic in itself, perhaps it provided hints to it instead. If Trista were to hazard a guess, surely her powers would possess plenty of the same properties as that of the Moon itself. It may not have been what Trista wanted. But it was possibly the next best thing.

"Th-Thank you, sir..." Trista merrily replied, "It's... a shame that n-no-one's able to teach me about my powers but... at least I... have this. It's not much but... it'll do..." Before continuing, Trista lowered the book and placed it under her right arm out of the way.

"I-Is there much I can... really do for now, sir?" Trista asked, "I mean... Is there any possibility for me learning or mastering my powers? Not to be ungrateful, oh no... I mean... Won't I get left behind? While people are learning how to shroud themselves in darkness or part waves, what about me?"
